Brilliance -

If I wake up blind, with the sun in my eyes

Beating on my brow through the car window

If I close my eyes, will I miss pink skies being overcome by black clouds above

But I’m too scared to explain why only days ago, I’m sure I died

The brilliance of the rocks below

I’m in control, at the edge, on my own

Arguments and solace from the book inside the dresser drawer

Curled up on the bathroom floor and Billie’s on the radio

If Lady Day could only know how she’s saving me now

And I will fly away in time

And I will learn to forgive myself
